Building Tools to Democratize Access to Medical Data

Doc.ai's First Developer Meeting

*A critical part of applying AI and Machine Learning in Healthcare and Life Sciences is helping support creation and access to medical data.Building better infrastructure and culture for sharing medical data is something we're extremely interested in.*

We're inspired by Doc.ai's dedication to create medical data access and excited to partner with them on their first developer meeting! Join us March 21st in SF for a sneak preview of Doc.ai's developer platform which will soon be open for the community to use and build upon. Doc.ai's engineering and AI teams will present, along with Chief Science Officer Jeremy Howard.

This is a great event to attend if you are interested in the confluence of AI, health tech and blockchain. Doc.ai has uniquely combined these elements with the opportunity for real social impact and their own cryptocurrency: $NRN.
